  • 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: Let me end by urging the ad hoc Committee on COVID-19 to, not only bring statistics on what is going on, but also ensure, in conjunction with the Committee on Health, that all the resources being channelled by the Government from The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

  • 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: taxpayers and donors to manage this pandemic, is put to good use. They must be accounted properly and reaches the target groups, so that Kenyans benefit. view
  • 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I am happy that the Majority Leader has mentioned the issue of pending Petitions. Kenyans have a lot of faith in this House. That is why every single sitting day, we have three or four Petitions. However, every time Petitions come here, the Chair commits them to committees and that is virtually the end of the matter. I want to urge the Leader of Majority and the leadership of the House particularly the Committee on Procedure and Rules to amend our Standing Orders so that, one, we bring back the Implementation Committee that can deal with the ... view
  • 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: going to demoralize wananchi and people who have faith in this House. Comparatively, when you look at the number of Petitions that go to our counterpart House, they are fewer than Petitions that come here. I want to urge the Chair and the leadership: (i)to find a better mechanism within our Standing Orders on how to process Petitions and bring back results and; (ii)an implementation mechanism not only on Petitions but all other resolutions of this House. view
  • 14 Jul 2020 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, Sen. (Dr.) Ochillo- Ayacko has said what I wanted to say. view
  • 14 Jul 2020 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, Sen. (Dr.) Milgo’s Statement is very important. In this country, over 70 per cent of the people work in the agricultural sector. Our economy is supposed to be agricultural based, but every time farmers produce enough produce, they suffer even more. There are no markets, no communication, very difficult circumstances and very expensive inputs. This country has fallen into the trap set by Western governments of leaving everything to the so-called market forces, when in their own countries they subsidise The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this ... view
  • 14 Jul 2020 in Senate: farmers at every twist and turn. It is important that the Government takes serious steps to support farmers at every level; land preparation, inputs, markets, value addition and so on. Lastly, Madam Deputy Speaker, since the matters concern COVID-19, allow me to send sincere condolences to two distinguished citizens of my county. Yesterday we buried the first medical doctor to die of COVID-19, Dr. Doreen Lugaliki, in Tongaren Sub-County of Bungoma. Last night, we lost one of the most distinguished professors in the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Nairobi (UoN), Prof. Maurice Kizito Mang’oli, who succumbed to COVID-19. ... view
  • 14 Jul 2020 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. view
  • 14 Jul 2020 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, you did, in fact, cut him short. I believe it is because my good friend, the Senator for Nyandarua, said something that is offensive. In addition to what the Senator for Nairobi City has said, the distinguished Senator for Nyandarua, who has served in Cabinet in this country, must tell the Cabinet Secretary when he appears tomorrow that governments exist in perpetuity. The Government of 1963 and the Government of 2020 is the same Government of the Republic of Kenya and they must carry their responsibility regardless, anywhere and everywhere. view
  • 14 Jul 2020 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, my point of order relates to decorum in the House. Our Standing Orders are very clear. The distinguished Senator for Nandi County was raising something very important, but in a very chaotic manner. Madam Deputy Speaker, when the Speaker is speaking, the House is obligated by Standing Orders to remain silent. It cannot be business as usual that the Speaker is talking and a Member is shouting, another Member is on his feet and the whole situation does not conform to the Standing Orders. Secondly, Madam Deputy Speaker, I want to encourage you to enforce the rules ... view
